  • Lead for an implantable medical device using glue expansion chamber and canals
    Patent number: 5902330
    Abstract: A lead for an implanted medical device, particularly for a cardiac pacemaker, which has at its extremity distal a hollow cylindrical body (10) presenting at its distal side an opening (22) receiving a stimulation electrode (16) which is mounted axially in this opening, the body and electrode being mechanically fixed and set together by gluing the wall of the body to the wall of the electrode. The internal wall of the body is conformed in a manner to provide between the electrode and body, when the electrode is mounted in the body, a peripheral space defining a chamber (30, 34) between the opposing walls (50, 52) of the body and the electrode. This chamber is a glue expansion chamber essentially closed as compared to the exterior except for an injection canal (32) and an escape canal (36).
